Are there any Paypal Alternatives?

In the wake of so many people having issues with Paypal, I'm interested in trying other alternatives, and I am sure that there are others who feel the same way.

Please, if there are paypal alternatives, post the URL's here!

Thanks!

Same thing, only owned by yapoo

As you can see, your choices are limited. From what I've heard paypal is still the best.

The tried and true Money Order

I friggin hate money orders. There's a $5 fee, and then it costs me another $6 to send the darn thing expresspost. Something that only costs $50 US ends up costing $100 cdn. WTF???

Sorry. Guess I should've started a rant thread.
